The problem is that YouTube app and F1 app are Android only so having a Linux media box won't help. It needs to run Android to run Android apps.

Plus I like to use Chromecast, we use it all the time to send YouTube videos from our phones to the big screen.

What's wrong with using YouTube in a browser?

Can't control it from my phone. Would need a mouse. At least I'm tech minded. My wife isn't and there is no way she would stand for using a mouse and browser on the TV.

Ah, right, makes sense. I'm using a steam controller (or any other controller with steam, honestly) instead of a mouse, which works well enough
